Total tooth loss and complete denture use in older adults with intellectual disabilities in I reland
Older people with ID are more likely to be edentulous than those without ID in Ireland and when they lose their teeth, they are unlikely to use dentures. This suggests a need for targeted measures to maintain the teeth of this group and, in the short term, the provision of replacement teeth in this population, where indicated
Between worlds
While the financial, physical and psycho-social burden for caregivers is recorded, less is known about the post-caring experience. The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore the experiences and needs of Irish former family carers in the post-caring/care transitions period. Former family carers were defined as family members who provided physical and/or social care to a family member with an illness or disability in the home …
PP15 National Longitudinal Study of the Nutritional Habits of Adults with an Intellectual Disability - Analysis of Baseline Data
Background Adults with intellectual disability (ID) are known to have poor dietary habits and high rates of obesity. This population is thus at high risk for developing chronic conditions. Moreover, the process of de-institutionalisation is changing the way adults with ID are leading their lives and as this is a more recent phenomenon the effects of more independent living on dietary habits are largely unknown. This study provides a detailed acco…

Acute hospitals and care in this sense refer to those intended for short-term treatment of illnesses. Care is provided by specialist teams comprising members of different disciplines/professions and is overseen by a complex hospital management and administrative structure. The respective voices of different specialist fields, disciplines, managers a…
